Catcher in the Rye (J. D. Salinger)

Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin (take a wild guess)

Then, other options…

The Notebook, by Nicholas Sparks

True Women, by Janice Woods

The Joy Luck Club, by Amy Tan

Hundred Secret Senses, by Amy Tan (I’m reading it now, it’s really nice)

And then, if you like Stephen King, The Dark Tower Series is great!

Hope you read some of these!

here is a teaser for you (true story): the entire story came to him in a dream in one night, he wrote the entire book (it’s not a long book) then burned it, because he thought it too horrible; then rethinking, wrote it again to be published

Also: have you read Orwell’s Animal Farm already?

My son read all three of R Ludlum’s Bourne titles in HS and loved them, totally different from the movie scripts & he thought the books better

Also J Austen’s Emma is very funny, esp. if you have seen the Clueless movie loosely based on it

Also, look into the classics, since you are in high school and will most likely come across them.
